i think it was from plummen. wasnt there something about using spotless dishwasher soap and dipping them face first in it, then letting it dry?

I've never read an easy way here or anywhere else. As far as I know dissassembly is the only way. This means butchering the ring seal. Guys have done it. I had a junk speedo I thought I would give it a try just for future reference. I can condense the story to a simple "don't do it".
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.
